ESSIC Director and ConE Chair, Professor Antonio Busalacchi, was recently featured in a Princes Georges Community Television (CTV) news report, highlighting his study on climate and the world’s major wine producing regions.
Busalacchi noted how some vineyards are already suffering from extreme weather events that are considered by many to be a direct consequence of climate change. He also discussed how some growers have begun to explore and even relocate to new host-regions, as the climate in these areas become more conducive to the production of certain types of wine.
The interview can be viewed in its entirety below.
